Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

…criminals.

Say by creating an environment where people do the thing voluntarily, et voila.

Making it illegal harms people, particularly women.

But don’t mistake your personal opinion for Moral Truth or the law of the land. If it were, I’d have eggplants (aubergine for you Brits) banned tomorrow.

Make a list of the countries that most stringently ban porn, with the harshest penalties.

Criminals who won’t hesitate to traffic people, if it makes them money. The way you solve the problem is to remove the financial incentive to traffic people.

Finally, “oh wow I want to protect the wimmens all the poor poor wimmens” ah HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha no you heckin’ don’t.

Make a list of the countries where women are treated as second-class citizens or property.

Compare your lists. Notice anything funny?

When a black man and a white woman have a child, does the child become white? If a white man and a black woman have a child, does the child become black?

The number of women willing to do porn voluntarily is staggeringly high. Like you wouldn’t even believe.

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

Normal people know that what your particular preachers say has no bearing on what is or is not legal.
